Summary[edit]
| Description | Wallace Berman and friends at the Ferus Gallery showing a Wally Hedrick sculpture to the LAPD vice squad in 1957. Wallace Berman appears to be lighthearted in this photograph as he cranks Wally Hedrick’s Sunflower (1952) outside the Ferus Gallery. But according to Charles Brittin, who happened to be there when the vice squad paid a visit, he had already been arrested, and on his way to the police car. The gallery was closed temporarily and Berman was arrested on obscenity charges, tried and found guilty. Shortly afterward he left Los Angeles—which he called “this city of degenerate angels”—and did not return until the early 1960s. |
